Even if done correctly, tubal ligation is not 100% effective. Most medical information sites describe the success rate at 99%. Additionally, there are different methods of performing the procedure that can decrease the success rate. In general, the risk of failure increases over time. Finally, a good portion of these procedures (12-15%) can result in ectopic pregnancies. To determine whether you have a viable medical malpractice case, an attorney will have to have an expert review all of the pertinent records to ascertain whether the pregnancy was the result of a negligently performed procedure. Two other big questions will be whether your state recognizes a cause of action for “wrongful birth,” and what damages you may be entitled to if your state does. You are not going to find an attorney to file a lawsuit for the costs of the tubal ligation, that is not a financially viable case. If you were damaged as a result of the pregnancy, that is a different question. It really depends on the nature of the damages.  Click here for an article that discusses the three main questions I ask when deciding whether to investigate a potential medical malpractice case.
